gave my kids their first can of pop today too. They have never had their own can before and they thought I was the coolest mom ever today. We were out doing MAJOR yard work/landscaping and mom decided she needed one too. Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!

Simon had 2 surgeries when he was between 1 and 2 years old. One for ears and one a little more serious. Of course it's scary, but I guess the alternative was scarier. You just have to trust that everything will be okay and that he is in good hands. Simon recovered better than expected so that was a definite positive! Good luck!!!

I am so glad Phillip won too! He was my favorite from the beginning! Hudson gets ear tubes next Tuesday, I will let you know how it goes. Feeling confident and nervous as a mama all at the same time! Just thought you would like to know: Ayla is now sportin a Bright, Pink, Glitter cast.......oh that girl, it was bound to happen sooner or later ( :
Happy Weekend!

2012-05-25T12:47:35.272-05:00

We are going to work on our summer bucket list tonight or this weekend as well. It is always so much fun to hear what the kids want to do. I am going to try something different this summer. I picked a 'theme' for each week, then we can use that as a starting point for a craft, books from the library, an outing and maybe even something fun the kids can cook. Hopefully it will keep me from getting too lazy and the kids from getting bored.
Hope you can stay cool this weekend. It is going to be HOT here, ugh.

Friday morning plans derailed, but it will still be a good day.

Surgery, Hayden had ear tubes, and had to have special anethesia (SP?) because of a medical condition, so they took him away from us and we weren't with him, that was hard. I have heard that parents are typically with child when they are put under, will that be the case? I think it is harder on the parent than the child. He will do great:)

Poor Sydney, funny how you would think it is intuitive to change a diaper before bed. Where did you go last night, a date?

Clarify - the tears are yours? Overwhelmed?

I'd just like to give you the mom of the year award. I specifically
Love that you told Henry to get the ball like you had already told him 10 times instead of asking him and he did it right away...and then you didn't say thank you!! Love it...thanks for sharing because you know we are all in that moment...keep it real! Rr.

Tailgate funny, have yet to leave mine open but I have left the door open and gone into the library. Fun video, who doesn't love to capture true moments.

Video totally made me laugh...I'd probably do the same thing! And OH MY GOSH you and Raina sound exactly the same!!! I was very taken aback by that! :)

Your video reminds me of a video I took of the girls sword fighting.. ha ha, I should send it to you.

Thanks for sharing that link. I think that pretty much sums up every night around here and apparently in all houses with young children!

Always enjoy reading your updates. I think we need to have your MIL teach us some sewing basics. I would love to just be able to hem my jeans!

It was a good workout this morning, cheers to many more spinning classes together! We will love it, in time!

SO. FUN. When I show up for a weekend of wine, healthy vegetarian food, a crazy 5k, wine, and games, oh and wine...I'm certain you've figured me out. I'm SO thankful to be taking on such cool women as my new in-laws, and I always look forward to our time together!

That looks awesome! What a great time! :)

2012-05-21T19:09:13.108-05:00

I wanted to do the color run up here in Seattle sooooo bad but I really wanted my partner in crime to be my hubby and he wasn't as excited as I was. PARTY POOPER. So what if I can go run somewhere for free. He said he'd even provide the colored chalk and spray me as I ran past. MEN! :) Maybe next time. Looks like you had fun!

Such an important perspective to take with me into the weekend.

Love that picture of tiny Sydney from last year! We call that face "tough baby face" here. So cute!
